摘要
The purpose of this study was to compare, in vitro, the machining efficiency of four brands of nickel-titanium files and two brands of stainless steel K-type files. Instruments sizes 15 to 40 were tested in a linear motion simulating the clinical motion used to remove a file from the canal. The tips of the loaded files were in contact with a resin block. The load applied increased with file size. An indentation varnish caliper was used to measure the depth of the groove after 100 back-and-forward motions. The stainless steel instruments with a triangular cross-section were more efficient than the stainless steel instruments with a square cross-section. There was a significant discrepancy between the machining ability of the nickel-titanium K files. The Maillefer instruments were the most efficient.
